Independent Villas The township of Kerikeri is a holiday destination and you will feel just like a holidaymaker in our resort-like village. Our villas have a fresh, contemporary feel and come with stylish two or three bedrooms. Intelligently designed, all of them take full advantage of the warm Kerikeri sun and are perfectly suited to entertaining.

Every interior essential has been considered, from the latest in kitchen appliances to neutral toned carpets, so you can furnish your home according to your own personal taste.

All villas come with secure garaging and are linked to our 24-hour emergency call system so support is only a button-push away.

Now and again you might find that you require support services. We can point you in the right direction towards accessing these, while allowing you to maintain your independence at all times. You can receive these services in your own villa for as long as you choose.

If you have lived in your current home for many years, you may feel that there’s no place like it. We understand that. That is why OAKRIDGE VILLAS has all the comforts of home (and a few that home may not have offered before).
